AUDIO: What’s an authentic Jewish connection?

Rabbi Andrea London reflects on congregational leadership. Beth Emet The Free Synagogue is a cornerstone of Evanston’s Reform
Jewish community—an institution that has blazed trails since its
founding some 60 years ago. Under the leadership of Rabbi Andrea London
since last summer, the congregation now is undertaking a new era of
change. “Change is inevitable, but growth is optional,” London says in
an interview with JUF News Executive Editor Aaron B. Cohen. “I want to
take that option, because things are going to change, and if you stay
the same, the world is going to continue to move past you until you’re
irrelevant.”
